No Special Characters Zip Code Field

No Special Characters Zip Code Field

I have started getting the error message "no special characters allowed" next to the zip code field.

This happens despite there being no special characters - not even spaces entered in this field. This has only started happening recently and worked fine before.  I am having to delete everything in the zip code field every time I want to save an edited contact.

Has something changed in zoho and how can I fix this?
